Your student has made a great choice!
The University of Wisconsin La Crosse is a wonderful place for students to learn and grow amidst fun and challenge.
A significant part of a UWL experience is had on campus in one of the Residence Halls. Within these halls students meet friends, learn skills outside the classroom and accumulate memories Students repeatedly report that their on campus living experience is one of the most valuable learning experiences they have as a student. We at the Office of Residence Life value the experience of our students and are committed to making sure that living in the halls is a safe and rewarding time.
Residence Hall Staff
To make the Residence Hall experience the best it can be, each hall is led by a masters level professional, a Hall Director (HD), specifically trained to work with the development of college students. To help out the HD there are 6 to 13 undergraduate staff members, Resident Assistant (RA’s), to aid in the student transition and onigoing experiences. The safety of our students is also a paramount goal of all our hall staff.
Leadership Opportunities

There are many leadership opportunities offered within the Residence Halls. Each hall has a Hall Council that offers executive board positions and great leadership experience. There is also an all campus leadership opportunity called Residence Hall Association Council that offers chances for students to get a larger scale leadership experience. Beyond the residence halls too, campus offers a plethera of opportunities for your son or daughter to get involved. Whichever opportunities students choose there are great mentors and teachers to help them learn valuable leadership skills to compliment their academic experience here at UWL.
As you can see, it is clearly a good choice for students to live on campus at UWL. We sincerely hope that each student gets the most out of their experience in the Residence Halls and at UWL. Our staff is committed to doing what we can to make that experience happen. If there is anything we can do feel free to call the Office of Residence Life at 608-785-8075 and we will get you directed to the answers and guidance you are looking for.
